Mahara 1.6 - I can upload a zip file but there is no option to unzip it. Am I missing something?

The edit and delete buttons appear and I can download it again (so it appears to be there) but no unzip.

Hello Howard,

could you go to  'Portfolio->export' and see if you have export options available or does  it say 'You do not have zip installed'?

Hi,

That works fine - all options available.

Hello Howard,

If you still have the problem, could you check that the zip library is installed on your server. You can either do this with an apt-get install zip.

Either way you could check that in putting a file you call whatever.php that only contains the line

<?php echo phpinfo(); ?>

and place this at the root of your server. Then run in your browser:

http://yourserveraddress.com/whatever.php

Search on the page for "zip" information. If there isn't any, your zip library is not installed.

Regards,
